Joss Whedon may be busy prepping the Marvel mega-movie The Avengers, but he took a little time off to drop a note to E! about the wholly unnecessary and kind of upsetting Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie that's proceeding without his input. "I always hoped that Buffy would live on even after my death. But, you know, AFTER," Whedon said.
